hey i just found this email detective site that searches the email you type in and gives you info on the sender... could this be used for scamming? [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Is that even legal? How would that work anyway? Will it trace the IP the user has been using when he signed up for the email? Makes no sense, glad im behind proxy almost 24/7.

I dont think we have to worry about it tbh, even if i know that the rules in the US is sometimes inhuman () it sounds to unrealstic to be true that a private person can trace you via your email. Even IF they trace your IP they have to talk to your internet provided to get your homeadress, and they will say NO unless your doing something that im sure is forbidded to talk about on this forum, involving the words "Child" and "Porn".
